Tournament of Maiden Solos: the Top 10 video!

[tarikz]

ATG and it's not even close!

 

[Spaniard in the Works]

DAMN THIS IS TOO HARD.
I was so sure I was going to vote for CSiT because I remembered not being too hot on ATG, but I was actually thinking of Adrian's fighting-with-the-time-signature solo. Dave's is stellar.

 

[mirtilo]

Dave's solo is a beautiful journey.

ATG with no doubt.

Then, please vote! We've got to end this travesty!

 

[MrKnickerbocker]

I love Adrian Smith, he is my favorite and plays (mostly) my favorite solos.

But ATG is the better lead here.

 

[mckindog]

It seems weird to vote for Alex after voting against the past few rounds.

 

[Edu_Smith]

ATG is wonderful...but Adrian in CSIT is my favorite solo of Maiden.

 

[adrian fn rules]

Davey

 

[Lampwick 43]

This was also extremely difficult, but I have to go with CSIT for the bronze.

 

[Srogyy]

AtG wins for me. It's more majestic.

 

[Brigantium]

CSIT and tied

 

[Stardust]

Third best Somewhere In Time Adrian Smith solo

006 / 044 / Alexander the Great Adrian Smith
Fourth best Somewhere In Time Adrian Smith solo

007 / 040 / Sea of Madness Adrian Smith
Fifth best Somewhere In Time Adrian Smith solo

 

[Spaniard in the Works]

Besides those are fourth fifth and sixth solos from Somewhere in Time overall.

Only 4 of the top 10 are not from SiT and 3 of those are the lowest.

You people really like that album. I do want to, but it always disappoints me and I cannot put my finger on why.

 

[Forostar]

You went to the toilet when the solos came on?

 

[Spaniard in the Works]

On some songs my mind wandered off before the solo came. Honestly until this contest I had not even noticed Long Distance Runner had a solo.

 

[frus]

Jeez

 

[The Flash]

On some songs my mind wandered off before the solo came. Honestly until this contest I had not even noticed Long Distance Runner had a solo.

That's a questionable attention span then.
